one of the things we've seen already in the european union is suspect of al qaeda starting fires in the eu if that happened in california in the right weather conditions, it would be disasterous and everybody in this room would likely be involved. but to go back, it's all -- for me it's all about relationships, it's all about communication and respecting each other's mission. we certainly appreciate our relationships with all 3 agencies up here. the last thing i would say with respect to technology, one of the things as a command and control tool that cal fire is experimenting with is a program that dhs science and technology created and if you are ready to write it down, you can look online, you can google it, it's called the next generation incident command system or nics. it's a command and control web-based tool that we're looking with mit lincoln labs and dss and i would foresee when we stand up our wing operation center at miramar that the marine corps liaison and the navy liaison and if need be the guard liaison would have access to that tool. the next generation command system i

small business access program in conjunction with asian neighborhood services and northeast credit union. we would not only provide some free assessments by certified access specialists that would come out here to the commercial corridors like irving, like noriega and taraval in our investment neighborhood strategies, they would offer these free assessments that would do the inspection and allow the small businesses to understand what all the challenges are. so, it begins with that assessment. and then with the monies that we do have, we wanted to follow-up with our sf shines programs and other programs that we have and offer a combination of grants and micro lending loan programs that are available to these businesses so they can make the corrections in an affordable way. this is our city's attempt, it is fully supported by the board of supervisors, and this program i think now has its ability to be launched and have -- really meet these access challenges in a positive way. so, we're not just avoiding lawsuits. i think we do want everybody business to be compliant, as they should be. bu

in and out of unions. it's really tough. the globalization pressure, other things are really weighing in on it. in the spending, i really do have to disagree with you about that. it's the republicans in congress in particular that have just opened up the piggy bank. when you have the war in iraq and war in afghanistan on the credit card, that's disgraceful. never in the history of this country have we put the cost of the war on the credit card. you had the bush tax cuts where it was promised if you lowered revenues it would raise the economy. it didn't. we went from 20 million jobs created during the clinton years with higher tax rates to only 700,000 jobs during the bush years with these low tax rates. these are policies that we passed here in this country that have led to it, but it's primarily under republican leadership. don't mean to say democrats don't have some responsibility here. i think i do dispute your premise here. host: peter welch is our guest until the top of the hour. democrat of vermont. chief deputy whip h

so those labor rates will vary as the union agreements change over a four-year period. and we have allowed for that, but we negotiated with the contractor of a mixed overhead rate throughout for the whole four years, as a percentage on the labor. and all of the monthly equipment rental rates were fixed and anvil builders, in fact, sbe certified and also have a disadvantage of veteran's business, who actually will be supplying the design and the electrical connections. and they have an agreement with usa hoists to provide all of the equipments which is leased to the project. so the contract will, in fact, exceed the 80 percent sbe. and we agreed with the negotiation of 9.25, approximately a million under the next lowest bid. all of the three proposals were inside of the original estimate. so the staff is really quite comfortable to recommend that the board authorizes the contract for 9.2 million to anvil builders. are there any questions? >> i just have one quick question. and so, being that you had three applicants but two were not responsive, because they didn't submit
